Clear yellow, no head. Aroma of oak wood, white wine, apple. Taste is very much sour apple, like juice with bubbles. Sweet.

Pours light gold with white head. The head left some lacing as I drank it. Smelled like wine or champagne and had a hint of apples but was faint. Tasted like apples and was sweet and refreshing. I liked it alot and good have another some time soon.

Clear golden coloured, no head. Aroma of a white wine. Sweet cider flavour. Actually pretty good for a cider.

12 oz bottle. Very very light yellow, bubbly-cloudy at first, becomes very clear and thin quickly. Light Yellow Delicious nose, fairly fresh but weak and simple. Flavor, similarly dull, moderately sweet and juicy, but overall bland and rather character-free. This smaple bottled in Middlebury, Vermont. Adequate, I guess.

Golden color...not yellow like the "rest"...smells of apple...not overly sweet like others...much more dry (not as dry as Blackthorn though)...but overall not super sweet...definately much more up my alley...

Straw color - darker than many commercial ciders. True apple aroma, tinge of sulfur. Lightly tangy, semi-dry finish. A very nice mix of acidity, apple flavor, and light sweetness. One of the top 2 or 3 commercial ciders I’ve tried to date.

Bottle. The exact color of white wine with no head. It looks like champagne in my flute glass. Nose is candy apple and carbonation. The apple taste is not overpowering. Very fizzy. Not bad. I would have this again.

Light, fizzy applejuice. Slightly tart finish. Almost white. What’s the point?
